The water channel of the Cross Canal is wide and deep, and its river bed is higher than the surrounding plains. If the flood surges, it will certainly be flooded for thousands of miles.

However, because the water gods and the priests of the water gods are maintaining the existence of divine magic, even if the flood surges, it is not possible to overflow the river canal, and it will only flow into the sea at a faster rate.

The slightly smell of the river water came along with the wind near the river, and the yellow leaves of Xuan'er fell on the water and drifted away slowly.

Joshua was eating jerky, but his eyes fell on the microwave on the river, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

After a while, a mercenary-like young man climbed to the river embankment from below and shouted, "Captain, Aladdin, they have already selected the right task. Wait for you to confirm it."

Joshua returned to God and turned and said, "Well, go back."

Leaping from the river embankment, Joshua walked to a small town not far away.

The name of this small town is Flashpoint City, with a population of about 100,000. It used to be peaceful here, and there were not many people coming and going. After all, it was just an unknown town.

But recently, there are a lot of caravans here. The Cross Canal passes in front of the city and there are docks here. Many caravans are willing to stay in the city for a day or two to see if they can sell something. , Or there is something you can buy.

With more people, the city will become lively.

In fact, not only this city, as long as it is a city near the Cross Canal, or a township, it is obviously more prosperous than two months ago.

As a former lord, Joshua knew exactly what it meant. More caravans, more bustling cities, more tax revenue, and more settlement rates.

Even more frightening is that this is just the beginning gains of the Cross Canal. As time goes by, people, especially businessmen, will know the benefits of this canal. Joshua can see it. One or two years later, there are scenes of floating merchant ships on this cross canal. Water theology and wealth theology can receive soft money, and people or forces with interests in this river will also get great wealth.

As long as some visionaries can see the prospect of this canal.

Joshua sighed, and he knew exactly who the river was, his benefactor and his worst enemy, Beta.

Enter the city and then into the humble mercenary union.

This is a small city. It is quite good to have mercenary unions stationed there. There must be no way to compare with large cities.

There were more than a dozen mercenaries sitting in the hall, all of which were like ‘I ’m not good at messing around’.

Joshua found his companions and sat beside them.

The mercenary team joins Joshua with just five people. Generally speaking, the more people in the mercenary team, the better, but Joshua does n’t think so. He remembers that when he had the 'round table knight' ability, the team defaulted It's five people.

Joshua felt that this should be the best number of people identified under Beta's special bloodline.

Mercenary squads are much more expensive and less expensive. Five cooperating companions are more flexible and powerful than a squad of more than ten or twenty people.

This year's adventure career also illustrates this point.

"Boss, these are a few of the tasks we have chosen, which are more suitable. Would you look at it again?"

Joshua took it, looked at it for a while, put it on the table, and laughed: "The second and third are good, everyone rests well today, and we will start tomorrow."

The others answered.

Joshua sighed softly. Before he ordered, the whole city had to listen to himself. Now ... there are only four people.

What a difference between heaven and earth.

Accustomed to the supremacy of power, and now becomes an ordinary person, Joshua has always felt quite awkward.

But if you are not used to it, you have to get used to it. His enemies are Beta, the Pope of the Fortune Gods, and the former Fortune God is still a small religion. There are only a few cities with churches and not many people.

However, the current wealth theology, the gathering place above each small town in Holebun, has a wealth theology church, and recently the wealth temple has done several major things, such as distributing equipment design drawings and helping to build a teleportation array and many more.

Although wealth theology is still a small denomination, but in fame, it has been known all over the world.

And myself ... just the captain of a mercenary squad.

There is almost no chance of revenge in this life.

And more importantly, the person he loves is still in his hands.

Can be released from prison, Joshua also knows that Julie must have put a lot of effort into it, maybe she has committed herself ...

Thinking of this, Joshua felt a bit cold and extremely uncomfortable.

But in order not to be different in front of his companions, he forged it down, and his face still had no expression.

The four companions drank cheap fruit wine and talked about rumors in the mercenary world, and Joshua was caught in the memories. He was sitting on the high platform in the memories, and the whole city was shaking under his majesty. Julie Be gentle and considerate by your side.

Suddenly, he felt that someone shook himself, turned his head, and found that he was a companion. He was unhappy at the moment. After all, he just remembered that when Julie was in the same room with herself for the first time, she was gorgeous.

The person who woken him pointed at the door: "The two women seem to be looking at you."

Find me?

Somewhat puzzled, Joshua turned back and saw two women standing at the door, one beautiful and the other cold, and one he was quite familiar with, glamorous with two points of resentment.

His mouth opened slightly and closed again.

At this time the entire mercenary union was silent, and everyone looked at the two beauties at the door.

Joshua saw Julie's eyes, her warm eyes, but she could see deep into her soul.

Suddenly, Joshua felt dry and he stood up and walked towards the door.

A few minutes later, in a small house of the mercenary union, Judy stood outside the door, while Joshua and Julie stayed inside.

In the dim environment, Julie, in a black and white maid costume, looked even more beautiful.

Joshua touched his chin, where he had a half-finger beard. In the mercenary world, a captain will not be trusted by the team members if he looks too young, so Joshua has a beard and looks at least mature.

But now he regrets it, knowing that he could see Julie today, he scraped it off.

"It won't be a long time, master."

It was still the silence that Julie broke first, and she smiled, both in expression and in her eyes, with warmth, with a touch of care.

"Yeah, it's been a long time."

In contrast, Joshua's voice was a little hoarse.

"How are you recently? I heard you were a mercenary."

"Okay."

"Can you tell me? The life of a mercenary should be fun."

Julie sat down by the chair.

"If you want to listen."

Joshua talked about coming out of the prison in Okinawa, wandering aimlessly like a dead body, until one day he accidentally rescued three trapped mercenaries and even stayed with them.

Since this time, they have been clear of mountain thieves, have been caravans of caravans, dug ancient tombs, and explored the ruins. Although most of the time is hard, they are quite fulfilling.

Joshua has been talking, Julie listened very carefully, Joshua seemed to have endless words, and Julie seemed to never listen enough.

But time will always pass. Unconsciously, the sky outside the window has darkened.

A soft cough came from outside, a signal from Judy, it was time to leave.

Julie took out her parcel and put it on the table.

The rushing sound of gold coins sounded and disappeared quickly.

"This is the gold coin I have saved over the past few years." Julie smiled and said, "Beta is also very good to the servants. My monthly salary and housekeeper are the same. It is one gold coin a month. I have saved several Years, plus festival rewards, in the next few years, I actually saved more than eighty pieces, which is an exaggeration, and I feel it is an exaggeration. Master, you can take them away. "

Joshua writes to Julie: "You don't go with me, and it doesn't make sense for me to take these coins."

"Don't be willful, master, do you want to be a mercenary for a lifetime?" Julie sighed softly: "You are a descendant of aristocracy, revitalizing the family is your instinct carved in the bones, otherwise you will not be a mercenary .But it is dangerous to be a mercenary. Equipment and intelligence need to be spent. You should not have saved any money in the past two years. "

Joshua smiled bitterly. He had only saved six gold coins in the past two years.

"Take these gold coins, go to other countries, buy a little noble status, and start again, master."

"Aren't you really going with me?"

Julie shook her head and stood up.

"and many more."

Joshua jumped up, trying to rush to hug Julie.

But Julie reached out her hand and gently pressed it against his chest. The distance between them was only one arm long, but it was as far as heaven and hell.

Joshua's strength is stronger than Julie. If he exerts his strength, Julie can't stop him at all.

But it was such an action that made Joshua feel that there was a natural danger that struck between the two, and he couldn't get over it.

"I hurt you last time. Do you still hate me?"

Julie shook her head: "You are my master ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ Even if you kill me, I will not hate you."

"So why?"

"Because if I go with you, you will die."

"Then die together!"

Joshua shouted frantically, "I've got enough to live anyway."

"I have no problem dying, but the master cannot die." When Julie stepped back, she smiled coldly as she stepped back to the door: "As long as you live, I will feel happy."

The door opened and closed, and the room became darker.

Joshua held out his hand, then dropped it again.

He held his head back to the chair, and two water marks flowed from his closed eyes.

The autumn wind outside the window was bleak, like the poet's sadness.

No matter what the world is, there is no regret medicine to eat.
